After reading through the fourms and trying to figure out what is wrong with my integra see past post, I assume it is the coil and/or module. I have both pulled off the distributor cap and can't figure out on how to get the platic cover off to change the parts. The cover has a wheel on the bottom with no way to get the thing off. Please help.

If you're not getting spark do below

IGNITION CHECKS

ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM
Spark (Integra & Vigor)
Crank engine. Using a high output spark tester, ensure strong Blue spark is present at each secondary ignition plug wire. If spark is not as described, go to step 2).
Ensure resistance of each spark plug wire is not more than 25,000 ohms. Disconnect and inspect all related ignition system connectors and harness. Clean or repair as necessary, and recheck spark. If strong Blue spark is still not present, go to IGNITION COIL POWER SOURCE.
Ignition Coil Power Source
On Integra and Vigor, remove distributor cap. On all models, disconnect ignition coil primary leads. Turn ignition on. Using voltmeter, check voltage between ground and Black/Yellow wire (terminal "A") of ignition coil(s) wiring harness. See Fig. 6, Fig. 7 or Fig. 8.
Ensure battery voltage exists. If battery voltage does not exist, check for open in Black/Yellow wire between ignition coil and ignition switch. If wire is okay, go to appropriate IGNITOR INPUT TEST.
Ignitor Input Test (Integra)
Turn ignition off. Remove distributor cap and rotor. Disconnect Black/Yellow, White/Blue, Yellow/Green, and Blue wires from ignitor. Turn ignition on. Using voltmeter, check for battery voltage between Black/Yellow wire of harness and body ground.
If voltage is not present, check for open in Black/Yellow wire between ignition switch and ignitor wiring harness connector. If voltage is present, check for voltage between White/Blue wire and body ground. If voltage is not present, check White/Blue wire and ignition coil for open circuit. If voltage is not present, go to step 3).
Disconnect ECU wiring harness connector. Check Yellow/Green wire for continuity between ECU wiring harness connector and ignitor. Check Blue wire for continuity between ignitor and tachometer. Repair or replace wiring as necessary. If wiring is okay, replace ignitor.

There is a set screw on the rotor button that needs to come off then the cover will slide right off. You may need to spin motor over to line screw up to where you can remove with screwdriver
